■ It is important for the water spray to reach all soiled surfaces.
■ Load dishes so they are not stacked or overlapping if
possible. For best drying, water must be able to drain from all
surfaces.
■
Make sure pot lids and handles, pizza pans, cookie sheets,
etc., do not interfere with the spray arm rotation.
■ Run a rinse cycle to keep dishes moist if you do not plan to
wash them soon. Foods like eggs, rice, pasta, spinach, and
cooked cereals may be hard to remove if they are left to dry
over a period of time.
Quiet operating tips
To avoid thumping/clattering noises during operation:
■ Make sure lightweight load items are secured in the racks.
■ Make sure pot lids and handles, pizza pans, cookie sheets,
etc., do not touch interior walls or interfere with the rotation of
the spray arm.
■ Load dishes so they do not touch one another.
NOTE:
For built-in models, keep sink drain plugs closed during
dishwasher operation to prevent noise transfer through drains.
Loading the Top Rack
The top rack is designed for cups, glasses, and smaller items.
(See recommended loading patterns shown.)
NOTE:
The features on your dishwasher rack may vary from the
drawings shown.
Cup and glass load
Mixed load
■ Place items so open ends face down for cleaning and
draining.
■ Load glasses in top rack only. The bottom rack is not
designed for glasses. Damage can occur.
■
Place cups and glasses in the rows between tines. Placing
them over the tines can lead to breakage.
■ China, crystal, and other delicate items must not touch each
other during dishwasher operation. Damage may occur.
■
Load plastic items in the top rack only. Only plastic items
marked “dishwasher safe” are recommended.
■
Load plastic items so the force of the spray does not move
them during the cycle.
■ To avoid chipping, do not let stemware touch other items.
■ Small bowls, pans, and other utensils can be placed in the
top rack. Load bowls in the center section for best stability.
Extra-capacity fold-down shelves
Fold down the extra shelf on the right side of the top rack to hold
additional cups, or long items such as utensils and spatulas.
Light item clips (on some models)
The light-item clips hold lightweight plastic items like cups, lids,
or bowls in place during washing. You can move a clip anywhere
in the rack.
To move a clip
1.
Pull the clip up and off the tine.
2.
Reposition the clip on another tine.
Adjustable top rack (on some models)
You can raise or lower the top rack to fit tall items in either the top
or bottom rack. One adjuster is located on each side of the top
rack.
